7/1

bogged down in web work — thinking i can’t go on but something is driving me to go on

i’ll have to work directly in css and html — photoshop is not designed to set text nor is curio

write with curio then work with html templates

went back to creative cloud - all apps — trying to get away from it didn’t work —
aim everything at or toward ’the book’ — ‘a’ book — ‘my’ book —


working with oil sticks is fun but messy — finger painting (with gloves)


sorting files is going to be a major project — i want to eat when i get nervous

<8/30/24 — i ate too much and gained back the weight i went through so much trouble to lose — now is a major down period>

7/4

a day to work in/on the studio — pick things up and take notes —
ART ? — should i keep everything at scanner size — larger things need to be photographed — maybe i should stay small until i get better at photographing art

for now i should stay with picking things up — but i want to work with pencils soon — so see if i can use colored pencils


embrace art as failure - as inability to accomplish what i want — a goal always some steps ahead of me

embrace art as failure
as inability to accomplish
what i want
a goal always some steps

now i'm heavier than i've been in years and finding it nearly impossible to reverse the gain
